Leadership Found

Oh how I love the writing of Arianna Huffington. Especially today in this post at The Huffington Post where she successfully shows us in words what Cindy Sheehan has shown us by her love of her son and the honoring of his memory with her actions at Camp Casey. During my many years as a writer, I’ve interviewed hundreds of people. But talking with Cindy Sheehan this morning was unlike any conversation I’ve ever had. [SNIP] She spoke with a combination of utter determination, unassailable integrity, fearlessness, and the peace of someone who knows that their cause is just. Her commitment was palpable -- and infectious. Oh how true. She represents the epitome of all that is good about a neighboring country that I love, but is sadly fast losing the respect of the world because of a dictator. It just makes my blood boil when I think of how this coward is treating Cindy. Kindly read the remainder of Ariannas' post HERE, and I am sure you will agree. Particularly these, her closing comments. Who knows, her example might even be just the thing to give Hillary and Harry and the rest of the Democratic leaders the spine transplant they so desperately need. Well we can only hope and pray that this will be the case, now that leadership has been found in one mothers' vigil in honor of her son. If you wish to keep up to date with the events at Camp Casey, Trouthout.org has live blogging here at One Mother's Stand. And please don't forget, you can support Cindy at MeetWithCindy.org, or Code Pink.
